CONE IT FIRST
BEAVERS AND WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:
As soon as a beaver has a culvert plugged, he has
established his area and his food supply. He will now build his house and
try to keep and build up his flood zone. The beaver now becomes harder to
deal with.
The smaller the culvert, the harder to keep it clean and the harder to
deal with.
The culvert cleaned out at this point will need some daily maintenance if
the beaver starts to plug the cone. Most of the time, he becomes disgusted
after a few tries and leaves. The cone will keep on doing its work.
The cone installed properly is the most important part. Excavate a small
pit 2 to 4 feet deep and out 4 to 6 feet from the culvert on all
installations. In all potential beaver country, a cone should be installed
on every culvert before the problem begins.
I have made this a practice for years and I have a very high rate of
success in dealing with beavers.
BEAVERCONE PRODUCTS INTRODUCES;
"THE BEAVERCONE"
With the beavercone properly installed,
it is virtually impossible for a beaver to plug the inside of a culvert.
Installation is easy, taking only approx 1/2 hour!
I have experimented with the beavercone
for the past 8 years and would never again install a culvert without one.
Also, I have never had a problem with spring ice up.

Your beavercone can be made to fit any
size culvert (steel or concrete)
When installing the cone, I usually
excavate a hole about 6 to 8 feet in diameter and 3 to 4 feet deep at the
culvert entrance. Drill two 3/8 holes in the culvert edge about 1 foot
apart and bolt 1/8 chain joining the culvert and the beavercone. This also
works as a hinge to raise the cone for cleaning.
On older damaged culverts, just place
the cone inside the culvert and chain or wire it (as shown in picture).

Installing a 6 ft heavy duty cone on highway 11 at
Atikokan in Nov. 2003. The plugging of this culvert threatened
the washout of Highway 11 many times.
No problems since this installation. |

Spring run off in cities, towns or
municipalities, culverts attract children and many have drowned. To
prevent children from being hurt, simply push the cone onto the culvert
end and chain or wire to the culvert. The taper of the cone will allow a
child to slide away from the danger zone, where a flat grid with rushing
water will hold a child against the culvert.
For larger fish, access holes can be
enlarged. Also, the outer end of the cone has a
6" access as has the new access on the bottom of the cone ( 6" x 6"). This
does not increase the price of the cones. Please ask for this extra fish
access when placing your order.
As fur prices drop, beaver have become a
real problem. The dying vegetation in the flood zone creates mercury and
the worst polluted water anywhere and with many cases of beaver fever.
Country roads, logging roads, highways,
railroads and any stream crossing with a culvert is easily plugged by
beaver. Within two days, there are severe problems of washouts.
Beavers cause millions of dollars in
damage each year.
GIVE THE "BEAVERCONE" A TRY, YOU WON'T
BE SORRY.

Installation in July 2004 on Highway 11, Geraldton,
Ontario. A very serious problem and no
problem since!
